“Google desktop” was a type of a program which was used by the users to search for computer files, music, photos, email messages, etc. But it was discontinued in the year 2011. As in the last few years, most of the local storage has been transferred to the cloud based storage and computing. Also, the searching tools have been added to most of the new operating systems. People have a quick and direct access to their data in both the modes i.e., offline as well as online. All these were the functions of Google Desktop, so google decided to discontinue this service.
